'''A Walk in the Woods''' is the sixth track in ''[[Halo: Original Soundtrack]]''.


==Overview==
'''A Walk in the Woods''' is a piece included in the [[Halo: Original Soundtrack]]. It was remade as [[Heretic, Hero]] in the [[Halo 2: Original Soundtrack]], and remade again as "Another Walk", part of [[Released]], in the [[Halo 3: Original Soundtrack]]. It was remade a third time as [[Walking Away]] in the [[Halo: Reach Original Soundtrack]].
The piece is dominated by synthetic woodwinds and a bass, which together start off solo before being joined by a steel drum. The woodwinds then begin to fade out, allowing the drums to begin dominating the piece with a pulsing, regular beat. Quickly, the winds join back in, re-establishing the melody of the piece. The melody fades out again, to be replaced by contrasting beats on cymbals; soon, the melody returns, now with the cymbals laid over it to lend a secondary beat to the piece. Near the end, the melody fades out for good, allowing the piece to gently conclude with cymbals sounding over the consistent pulse of the drum.


The piece was primarily written by [[Michael Salvatori]] with additions from [[Martin O'Donnell]].{{Ref/YouTube|0zG18XfsnvI|HiddenXperia|TALKING TO MARTY O'DONNELL ABOUT HALO INFINITE, Activision, the Halo 2 crunch and MUCH MUCH MORE!|D=6|M=7|Y=2020}}

The only two levels in ''[[Halo: CE]]'' in which it can be heard is [[Assault on the Control Room (level)|Assault on the Control Room]], after the land bridge with two Banshees. It continues until the player reaches the bottom floor and Cortana tells the player to commandeer the Ghosts, and in [[Two Betrayals]], during the cutscene after the last pulse generator is destroyed, until Cortana transports both her and the Chief out.
